My husband and I were very pleased with this spacious, clean, 3 story home in Lungern. We will never forget the wonderful Alpine views we enjoyed from every window. We cooked all our meals in the well stocked kitchen, which made our vacation quite affordable. The beds were very comfortable, and the bathrooms were clean and very modern. The house is centrally located between Interlaken and Lucerne (Luzern), but any direction we drove, led us to a wonderful village or town. We found the Home Away add for this property is very accurate, and we would highly recommend it to anyone. The lake wasn\'t full in April, but we were treated to a sensational waterfall viewed from the kitchen window and upper bedroom, that was doing its best to get the lake up to capacity. Even though we were between the winter skiing season and the summer boating season, the location was fantastic.
